  • Charlton fans sing "we've had a shot" after Ladapo hits one over bar.

    They must've been on the concourse for the entire first half...
    Latest sarcastic one was "We're going down"
    Clearly the travelling support were hoping and expecting better.

    The owners should surely realise now that if they are investing Appleton is not the man to trust with that investment- a change needs to happen swiftly or League Two beckons sooner rather than later.
    They have gambled on him by letting him boss the January transfer window. They are now committed.
    And brought in Fleming 
  • So what we doing? Kanu or Campbell for one of the back 3 go more of a 433? Fiorini and/ir Watson into the midfield for Dobson/Backinson? 

    Feels like we need to change something. 
  • I would get Dobson off now for Fiorini. We need something extra in the attack.
  • A back three with two second string defenders, not sure that Jones is comfortable in a back three either.

    If (when) we lose today I think that gives Appleton five points out of the last 30.  We would also be in effect at least 18th (given Wycombe-Port Vale postponement) and Reading are better than their points-deducted position suggests. I have never really thought we would go down to League 2, even in the dark days of Duchatalet and Sandgaard. Now I really worry it is a real possibility. 
    The thought of having to play Morecambe and Grimsby next season does not bear thinking about.
  • I guess we've had our good half.
  • I've seen charlton relegated enough times to know what a relegation season looks like.

    And this has all the appearance of one.


    Agreed .  I can’t see us winning any games at the moment .  We saw post Adkins that it can change around very quickly so I hope that we will change manager straight away . 
  • I just cannot see them sacking him when they’ve just brought in new players, expect he’ll get a couple more games. Not sure the defence will change that much unfortunately.

  • Burton have made a double sub. No sign of any movement on the Addicks bench yet.
  • Asiimwe and REG in for Jones and Watson on Tuesday please 
  • Kin hell.... Almost a repeat of the second goal
  • Make a change ffs

  • Horrible miscue in the Addicks area from Edun nearly presents Burton with another chance - AMB rushes off his line to intercept
  • St Tropez in attack
    Butlins Minehead at the back!
  • Is Appleton cursed ?
    No he's just a shit manager 
  • It’s almost like the players aren’t playing for the manager

  • Ness is shocking. Wouldn't be starting games for any other team in this league.

  • More anti-Appleton chants from the away end. Charlton have looked pretty blunt since going 2-0 down.
  • There can be no middle ground. Fail to win and he simply has to go and the fans have to force it through.

    Please tell me everyone now realises we are fighting relegation now. What the fuck was the clueless ‘this is a mid table going nowhere season’ shit all about? I mean - fucking hell.

    I can see him being sacked in mid February 
  • Tried to back applesauce but he's got to be done after this, utterly appalling and clearly can't coach a strong defensive performance out of us 
  • Still no subs?
  • Need a GK who organises the back 3, but our knock kneed flat foot hunched over keeper, will be away with the fairy’s 
  • Gone from fascinated to depressed.
  • I swore I’d not watch again this season and I wish I hadn’t…transfers lured me back into this dogshit
  • It’s almost like the players aren’t playing for the manager 
     First half they were playing well... Not sure I get that. I would suggest the sucker punch after half time probably has them a bit dejected.
